Country Club of Vermont

This upscale eighteen hole course, set on 225 acres of natural wetlands, has two distinctive personalities in its front and back nines. The front nine is open and links-style, while the back nine is wooded and features dramatic elevation changes and spectacular mountain views. The greens are large and have an abundance of movement. Their condition, as well as the entire course, is pristine. The signature hole is #7, a 444-yard, par 4, which contains a mixture of the entire course. There are natural wetlands on the right side of the hole and your tee shot plays into a prevailing wind. Two strategically-placed sand bunkers and a 150-yard waste bunker add to the challenge of this hole. The green is three-tiered, breaking from left to right. The 5,243-yard ladies' tee also has a men's course rating of 64.6 and slope of 105.

Course Reviews

Glen Oak Country Club"Bring your control game"Accuracy off the tee is more important than length as the fairways are lined with colorful trees. The small greens are surrounded by well-placed bunkers and then the real fun begins. The greens are fast, unless you have a downhill putt and then they are super-fast. Since the greens are so true, there are plenty of opportunities for one-putts, but also three-putts due to speed and breaks.
Relaxed social atmosphere of club makes for a fun day. Pros, lead by Danny Mulhearn, are terrific golfers and teachers.---Tom Smith (Guest of Kevin Kalinich), Chicago

Pine Orchard Yacht & Country Club"The classy links of the Thimble Islands"There is nothing better to do on a warm summer evening than playing a few holes down on the POYCC golf course. The course is always kept in the best condition with improvements always being made where ever possible. The course is easy enough for the casual golfer, but has a variety of challenges that make it fun and competive. The best aspect of the course is the great atmosphere and senic views of classic New England in Long Island Sound. After playing with friends, returning to the club house is a great experience. The course is always alive and no matter what the circumstances it is always a good game of golf.---J. Rich, CT

River Forest Country Club"Lastest Updates"I've been a member for 20+ years and have a preference for this course. This course seems to have several improvements since the review up top. A large pond with fountain was added to the long par 5 #3, and several new tee boxes have been added for both the long-ballers and the seniors. The course is a challenge for most, especially the greens and tight fairways, but it also provides a really enjoyable 'walk in the park' for many. The course is often busy with couples walking the scenic tract. Seems a lot of people enjoy the league play as there are ladies leagues 3 days, evening leagues on 4 days, and a couples' league on Sunday afternoons that we have joined. Good course for good players, who enjoy the game. ---TZ, Myrtle Beach
